Re: [MiNT] Strange getcwd() return value



Alan Hourihane, 16.10.2013 23:04:09:

I'm not sure but I think the very early MiNT-versions had all drives mapped under /dev, e.g. /dev/c for c:/. Maybe that's a remainder of that time.

Probably before drive U: came along.

How about adding them now? getcwd should not return something that does not exist.

You could also force a mint-domain-app to u: (could break GEMDOS-calls-using apps) or replace all /dev/d-input-paths in mintlib by d:/, but I'd prefer the above. I've never seen a device-name that consists of a single letter, or use upper-case.
